1. Alpha-1-microglobulin: Innate defence against pathological oxidation
Sammanfattning : Oxidative stress has been implicated as an important factor in the progression of many diseases. An imbalance in the redox-system may cause oxidation of cells and molecules, which might subsequently lead to tissue damage. LÄS MER
2. Structure and distribution of alpha-1-microglobulin proteins
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes studies of the structure and tissue distribution of alpha-1-microglobulin (a1-m), a member of the lipocalin protein superfamily with immunosuppressive properies. It was shown that a1-m appears in human plasma in five major forms. LÄS MER
3. Alpha-1-microglobulin, heme-binding protein, reductase and antioxidant
Sammanfattning : This thesis describes structural and functional studies of alpha-1-microglobulin (a1m), a 26 kDa plasma and tissue protein that is evolutionarily well-conserved and belongs to the lipocalin superfamily. The lipocalins are polypeptides of 160-190-amino acids that are folded into an 8-stranded beta-barrel forming a pocket with a hydrophobic interior. LÄS MER
4. Urinary Clara cell protein and alpha 1-microglobulin – biomarkers of changes in kidney and airway function
Sammanfattning : Validated biomarkers are useful tools for screening large populations. The benefit of screening may be improved risk assessment or early indications of adverse effects before detection or onset of symptoms. LÄS MER
5. Studies on the biological role of alpha-1-microglobulin
